Original synopsis

Overview

Jürgen Sternow, head of the special cyber crime department of the Kiel State Criminal Police Office, was the victim of an assassination attempt. It is reasonable to assume that the perpetrator is to be found in the rapidly growing area of cybercrime. Inspectors Borowski and Brandt are entrusted with the investigation by the responsible public prosecutor. While Borowski first has to acquire special technical knowledge , Sarah Brandt is in her element as a former hacker. But how do you hunt down an unrelated perpetrator who knows all the tricks of the trade to hide on the dark web? When Brandt manages to discover a gap in the assassin's seemingly perfect digital camouflage, they track down the killer.

About the show

Tatort is a long-running German/Austrian/Swiss crime television series set in various parts of these countries. The show is broadcast on the channels of ARD in Germany, ORF 2 in Austria, and SF1 in Switzerland. The first episode was broadcast on November 29, 1970. The opening sequence for the series has remained the same throughout the decades, which remains highly unusual for any such long-running TV series to date. Each of the regional TV channels that together form ARD, plus ORF and SF, produces its own episodes, starring its own police inspector, some of which, like the discontinued Schimanski, have become cultural icons. The show appears on DasErste and ORF 2 on Sundays at 8:15 p.m. and currently about 30 episodes are made per year. As of March 2013, 865 episodes in total have been produced. Tatort is currently being broadcast in the United States on the MHz Worldview channel under the name Scene of the Crime.
